Strawberries spoil quickly. Wash strawberries, cut stems off and place in colander. Pour boiling water over them so the water just touches the berries and drains out. The boiling water will kill the bacteria that causes the strawberries to decay...Put in fridge...They will last much longer....

Give wilted lettuce on more chance to revive by plunging it into cold water to which a little lemon juice has been added. Within an hour most lettuce will revive; other wise dispose of it.
